Where country charm meets warm hospitality in the heart of town
Nestled in the heart of Daylesford, the newly revitalised Daylesford Hotel offers a welcoming blend of tradition and innovation. The grand old pub has undergone a careful restoration, breathing new life into its historic interiors while maintaining the charm that locals and visitors alike adore.
The menu strikes a fine balance between comfort classics and inventive dishes, drawing on his Dutch heritage and passion for seasonal, hyperlocal produce. Expect favourites like duck pie with sour-cream puff pastry, hanger steak frites with béarnaise, and innovative small plates like curry-spiced chicken bitterballen or almond-crumbed fried lambs brains. Whether you’re dining in the cosy, cafe-curtained bistro, enjoying a pint in the expanded public bar, or grabbing a wood-fired pizza from the takeaway drive-through (thanks to Beppe’s old oven), the Daylesford Hotel promises something for every taste.
With its recent refurbishment, the Daylesford Hotel has once again become a vibrant hub of local life – a place to relax, unwind, and enjoy a delightful mix of classic and contemporary flavours. The upstairs accommodation is also being renovated and will soon offer charming, comfortable rooms for an extended stay in this beautiful region.
